How Rights Went Wrong

Book • 2021
In *How Rights Went Wrong*, Jamal Greene critiques the current legal system's absolutist approach to rights, which he argues exacerbates societal divisions.

He proposes that instead of relying heavily on judicial decisions, rights should be balanced through political processes and community involvement, aligning more closely with the Founders' original intentions.

Greene suggests that this approach could help bridge the gaps in American society by fostering more nuanced and inclusive discussions about rights.
